    Anterior sacral meningocele simulating ovarian cyst
    (John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2006) Erdoğmuş, Beşir; Yazıcı, Burhan; Özdere, Betül Ayça; Şafak, Alp Alper
    Anterior sacral meningocele is a rare condition characterized by the herniation of meningeal membranes and cerebrospinal fluid through a defect in the anterior aspect of the sacrum. We report a case of an anterior sacral meningocele that was mimicking an ovarian cyst.

    Association between varicocele and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
    (Wiley, 2006) Erdoğmuş, Beşir; Yazıcı, Burhan; Balbay, Öner; Annakkaya, Ali Nihat; Özdere, Betül Ayça; Bulut, İsmet
    Purpose. To evaluate the relationship between varicocele and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) via color duplex sonography. Materials and Methods. Forty-four male patients with COPD (age range, 50-89 years; mean +/- SD, 66 +/- 9) and 44 male healthy controls (age range, 47-75 years; mean +/- SD, 65 +/- 6) were evaluated with color duplex sonography for unilateral or bilateral varicocele. Results. The incidence of right, left, and bilateral varicocele was 47.7%, 65.9%, and 38.6% respectively, in the COPD group, versus 22.7%, 52.3%, and 13.6% in the control group. The incidence of right and bilateral varicocele in the COPD group was significantly higher than in the control group (p < 0.05). The incidence of varicocele also increased with increase in COPD severity. Conclusions. The incidence of varicocele in COPD patients is high. Varicocele might be one of the most important causes of scrotal pain and infertility in COPED patients.

    Clinical and ultrasonographical findings in patients with multiseptate gallbladder
    (Tohoku Univ Medical Press, 2004) Erdoğmuş, Beşir; Yazıcı, Burhan; Özdere, Betül Ayça; Akçan, Yusuf
    Multiseptate gallbladder is one of the rare congenital malformations of the gallbladder. We present clinical and ultrasonographic findings in seven patients with multiseptate gallbladder. One of them had nausea and right upper quadrant pain, three had recurrent abdominal pain, while the remaining three patients had no symptoms, physical finding and laboratory abnormality which could be attributable to the biliary system. In patients with multiseptate gallbladder, disturbed motility of the gallbladder may be an etiopathogenetic factor for stasis of bile flow and in turn for development of cholelithiasis, cholecystitis and right upper quadrant pain.

    Hump-shaped corpus callosum
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2005) Erdoğmuş, Beşir; Yazıcı, Burhan; Özdere, Betül Ayça
    Developmental anomalies of the corpus callosum are agenesis, hypogenesis, or hypoplasia. In this case, a hump-shaped anomaly was present in the body of the corpus callosum. The rostrum, genu, and splenium of the corpus callosum were normal. In addition, a split was present within this hump, connecting the lateral ventricles. No additional anomalies were present. This type of anomaly has not been previously reported in the literature.

    Multiseptate gallbladder with acute acalculous cholecystitis
    (John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2004) Erdoğmuş, Beşir; Yazıcı, Burhan; Şafak, Alp Alper; Özdere, Betül Ayça
    Multiseptate gallbladder is a rare congenital malformation of the gallbladder. In some cases, right upper quadrant pain, recurrent abdominal pain, and gallstones were present. We present the sonographic findings in a case of multiseptate gallbladder with acute cholecystitis, which (to our knowledge) has not been reported before. We hypothesize that bile sludge accumulated and subsequent cholecystitis developed as a result of bile stasis in our case because the classic predisposing factors that have been described were absent.

    The prevalence of venous insufficiency in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease evaluated by color duplex ultrasonography
    (Springer Wien, 2006) Erdoğmuş, Beşir; Annakkaya, Ali Nihat; Yazıcı, Burhan; Bulut, İsmet; Özdere, Betül Ayça; Büyükkaya, Ramazan
    Objectives: We hypothesized that in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) some extrapulmonary effects such as increase in intra-abdominal and intra-thoracic pressures, presence of cor pulmonale and pulmonary artery hypertension could cause venous insufficiency (VI) in the lower limbs. Our aim in this study was to assess the prevalence of VI in patients with COPD in comparison with healthy controls. Methods: Thirty-nine male patients with COPD and 36 healthy male controls were evaluated for VI. All the participants were in the same age group and their smoking intensities were similar. Patients with COPD were classified as having mild, moderate, severe or very severe disease according to criteria of the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease. All the patients and control group were examined for unilateral or bilateral VI of the common femoral vein, superficial femoral vein, deep femoral vein and popliteal vein using color duplex ultrasonography. Results: The prevalence of VI of the lower extremity in patients with COPD (69.2%) was significantly higher than in the healthy control group (41.7%). The prevalence increased as the COPD severity increased and VI was detected in all the patients with very severe COPD [mild COPD, 50.0% (2/4); moderate, 58.8% (10/17); severe, 75.0% (9/12); very severe, 100% (6/6)]. Conclusion: VI of the lower extremity appears more frequent in patients with COPD. We suggest ruling out COPD in patients with otherwise unexplained "primary" VI.
